One is finished and drying for the day while the other needs a few extra supports and then we varnish...

A new tool for the #marketgarden made mostly from workshop scraps: A wide #rake to mark drills for #sowing and #planting.
Originally, I wanted to use the metal rake in the first picture for this, but the angle of the pins was just not right.So I made one from two pieces of batten, a handle bought (as a hoe) from a discounter for 7€, some wood dowels and a bit of hose.
My beds are 80cm wide so the distance between the outer pins is 70cm. This way, I have 5cm to the edges on each side.
There is a total of nine pins. Depending on the number of pieces of hose I put on, I can mark up to nine rows on the bed in one go.
The bed has to be flat though, but here the metal rake comes handy.7€ and 1 1/4h work - I'm pretty chuffed.
